YuniKorn Scheduler for Kubernetes (yunikorn-k8shim)

YuniKorn scheduler shim for kubernetes is a customized k8s scheduler, it can be deployed in a K8s cluster and work as the scheduler. This project contains the k8s shim layer code for k8s, it depends on yunikorn-core which encapsulates all the actual scheduling logic. By default, it handles all pods scheduling if pod's spec has field schedulerName: yunikorn.

For detailed information on how to build the overall scheduler please see the build document in the yunikorn-core.

K8s-shim component build

This component build should only be used for development builds. Prerequisites and build environment setup is described in the above mentioned build document.

Build binary

The simplest way to get a local binary that can be run on a local Kubernetes environment is:

make build

This command will build a binary k8s_yunikorn_scheduler under _output/bin dir. This binary is executable on local environment, as long as kubectl is properly configured. Run ./k8s_yunikorn_scheduler -help to see all options.

Note: It may take few minutes to run this command for the first time, because it needs to download all dependencies. In case you get an error relating to checksum mismatch, run go clean -modcache and then rerun make build.

Build run

If the local kubernetes environment is up and running you can build and run the binary via:

make run

This will build the code, and run the scheduler with verbose logging. It will set the configuration for the scheduler to the provided default configuration queues.yaml and uses the current setup for kubernetes.

Build and run tests

Unit tests for the shim only can be run via:

make test

Any changes made to the shim code should not cause any existing tests to fail.

Build image steps

Build docker image can be triggered by running following command.

make image

You can set REGISTRY and VERSION in the commandline to build docker image with a specified tag and version. For example,

make image REGISTRY=yunikorn VERSION=latest

This command will build a binary executable with version latest and the docker image tag is yunikorn/yunikorn:scheduler-latest.

You can run following command to retrieve the meta info for a docker image build, such as component revisions, date of the build, etc.

docker inspect --format='{{.Config.Labels}}' yunikorn/yunikorn:scheduler-latest
